The Melt is Here

Our Spring melt has started, it has been at a slow pace but progress is made everyday.

Wednesday we went out and checked the greens on the golf course.  What we found is some greens that the snow is mostly gone, others are still snow covered.  So we started clearing some drainage trails on the  snow covered greens.  This will acomplish two things.  First it will help remove excess surface water as the snow is melting.  Second it will also aid and speed up the melting process, this is done by exposing the grounds surface.  We may go back and cut more cahnnels as we see fit. 




As you cand see the drainage ways will melt off rather quickly.  The bottom photo is #11 green, the grass is mostly exposed and looks great. 

For now we will continue to monitor the course and take any necessary actions. 

And yes we will OPEN when new hole locations can be cut.  Soon??
